  2. 16. Possibilities of CO2 emission reduction : process integration analysis and carbon trading schemes

    Author : Chuan Wang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Climate change is one of the greatest challenges faced by today's society. With more evidence from scientists, the need to manage greenhouse gas emissions has been increasing in response to international climate change negotiations. READ MORE

  4. 17. Carbon trace gas dynamics in subarctic lakes

    Author : Joachim Jansen; Patrick Crill; Andreas Lorke; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lakes; methane; carbon dioxide; fluxes; gas transfer; proxy; climate change; geokemi; Geochemistry;

    Abstract : Northern lakes are important sources of greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane to the atmosphere. Emissions are expected to increase as the climate continues to warm. Even so, lake carbon budgets are currently poorly constrained. This is in part because of a limited understanding of the processes that govern the flux. READ MORE

  5. 18. Robust Energy Systems. Strategies for CO2 Emission Control

    Author : Tomas Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; No Hedging; scenario analysis; IEA-MARKAL; energy planning; Hedging; carbon dioxide;

    Abstract : This dissertation deals with strategies to handle uncertainty about restrictions in CO2 emissions. A method has been developed for treating sequential decisions in energy planning. The method is an extension of the conventional scenario analysis, and is based on the evaluation of decision trees. READ MORE

  6. 19. Carbon Credits: Origins, Effectiveness & Future

    Author : Linn Takeuchi Waldegren; Miljö- och energisystem; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Additionality; carbon credits; Clean Development Mechanism CDM ; effectiveness; emissions reductions;

    Abstract : Carbon credits are used as an instrument for climate change mitigation. Each credit represents a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) equivalent of 1 ton of carbon dioxide. READ MORE

  7. 20. Fossil Free or Not - That is the Question

    Author : Torbjörn Skytt; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Monica Odlare; Markku Rummukainen; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fossil free; Carbon balance; Carbon flow; Energy flow; Climate mitigation; Governing climate change; Forest carbon;

    Abstract : This is an evaluation of Jämtland County’s ability to achieve its climate targets to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions with 10% annually, and to become fossil fuel free 2030. There is a risk that the target to become fossil fuel-free, relying primarily on outtake of forest biomass, contradicts with the target in the UN Paris Agreement to keep the global temperature increase below 1.
